A member asked:
I need your expertise, is adderall (dextroamphetamine and racemic amphetamine) better than concerta?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The best one is: The one that works best for you. When it comes to psychiatric medications, goodness of fit is the most important issue. Some people respond to one medication but not to another and vice versa. Try one and if it works, fantastic, but if it does not then you may need to switch to the other. Best wishes and have a great day.
